INTERNATIONAL LITERACY DAY
Wed, Sep 8th 2021 at 12:00 pm -
Today we celebrate and observe the importance of our basic human rights to literacy.
International Literacy Day takes place on September 8 every year to raise awareness and concern for literacy problems that exist within our own local communities as well as globally.
International Literacy Day was founded by proclamation of The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, or UNESCO, in 1966 “to remind the public of the importance of literacy as a matter of dignity and human rights.”
International Literacy Day brings ownership of the challenges of illiteracy back home to local communities where literacy begins, one person at a time.
